It's been a fairly quiet, restful Christmas Day, despite Ron's day starting at 8AM with PT and OT getting him up and going...no breaks here at Presby!
After spending the night at Debbie's and enjoying Christmas morning with all the family there, Ryan arrived mid-morning.
We had decided not to do presents this year, but Ryan surprised us with a couple. First, he had wrapped up his Bose CD player and our favorite Christmas CD so after opening these, we opened our presents (we each got a new "squishy" pillow, yeah!!!) while listening to our favorite Christmas song "You Gotta Get Up" by Rich Mullens, a traditional part of our Christmas mornings! Ron also received a gift basket from the Interventional Radiology department....that tells how much time he's spending with them!! His "new best friends" are very kind.
Ron and I spent a good part of the afternoon napping...pretty boring for Ryan, I'm sure. He returned to Deb's to have Christmas dinner late afternoon.
Aaron and Kristin have enjoyed the last couple of days celebrating Christmas with the Bailey's and their 10 new puppies!
As we celebrate our Saviour's birth, we also spend this day reflecting on the many miracles God has granted us this year, but especially in sparing Ron's life! As well as praising the Father for your faithfulness to minister to us in so many ways!
Blessings to you, dear family and friends!
Christie, Ron, Ryan, Aaron and Kristin
